  • voigtstr replied to the topic Calling all Tasmanian investors in the forum I’d be interested in coming 17 years ago

    I'd be interested in coming to these meetings. This year my available cash is paying down consumer debt, rather than investing as such, but it would be good to hear from others about things such as good accountants, and brokers etc who would fit in with Steve's methods of wealth building.

  • voigtstr replied to the topic how to start? Am I in a bad position? in the forum No Subject 17 years, 1 month ago

    Hi Young,
    I’m possibly in the same boat as you. I bought a unit as place of permanent residence at the start of last year. For most of last year my partner and I have been saving for our wedding (which happens next weekend). After that I’ve resolved myself to paying off my consumer debt (which was costing approx 600 a month in minimum payments…[Read more]

  • voigtstr replied to the topic Can my car help me?? in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 7 months ago

    When my car was stolen (a toyota corolla bought for $2500) I chose not to replace it. I’m still paying a loan for a motorbike bought for 21800 in 2002 that is now worth about 13000. I’m paying 439.06 a month. I’m not using it as a daily commute though… if you want to save petrol money and try to get fit, consider a push bike. I bought a nice…[Read more]

  • voigtstr replied to the topic Can my car help me?? in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 7 months ago

    hey I bought a series of motorbikes.. the last one cost $21,800 in 2002 and I’m still paying it off. Its worth 13,000 now apparantly.. “I will no longer buy depreciating assets with loans.” This should be a mantra taught at schools. If I want something now (like a shiny playstation 3)(or to pay for my wedding in Feb) I save up the cash in ING Direct.

  • voigtstr replied to the topic Market Price in the forum No Subject 17 years, 8 months ago

    I’ll add to crusher suggestions:

    make good friends with (or marry) a real estate agent or a person who works in a real estate agents office and get access to the prices of similar houses in the location you are interested in.

    And a slighty less useful answer. The market value of a house is the price for which the house sells for. (ie you dont…[Read more]

  • voigtstr replied to the topic Interest rate!! in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 8 months ago

    A limit? You could always go a fixed rate loan for x many years.
    That would certainly limit interest rate rises.

  • voigtstr replied to the topic What would you do with 7k? in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 10 months ago

    I would put 4k in ING (towards wedding costs next year)
    the other 3 would go towards my existing (consumer) debt

    Once you knock those debts over then start paying the same amount into your offset or redraw account. Very soon your equity will build to a point where there is a deposit just waiting for you to use.

    One thought… how does one afford it unless its part of a large CF+ portfolio.. I mean, the holding costs while you wait for the demand to raise the land value… it would be ok if you could pay cash I guess.
